Adventures of Pip

Evolution of Video Games

So I just downloaded the Adventures of Pip after seeing some positive reviews and just crave some easy 2D platform where I can actually jump. And it is rather fun. You take the role of Pip, a single pixel who embarks on a quest to save the kingdoms princess from the dark queen Derezzia who dreams of a world were everyone is a single pixel since then there will be no resia... I guess abuse against inferior pixels. Of course Derezzia is the only one still keeping her 16-bit resolution, but compared to the king and many other 16-bit people she is rather reasonable. You can change your resolution by defeating blue bit monsters and they will upgrade you. Each version have different attributes. 1 bit can float in air and on water while 8 bit can punch, wall jump and is the fastest while 16 bit have a sword that can break stone and he is heavy enough to sink in water and stand still in wind. All three versions are needed to reach the end. You can downgrade with just a push of a button which also works as an attack.

The saviour of the common pixel

I thought it was a simple game. I finished it in one sitting and only missed one villager and that was on the last stage. The only problem I had was the second to last boss, the lava boss apparently named Lord Magmalith. I hate that guy. I must have redone that sequence 20 times before I finally beat him and the last boss was a cakewalk.

I REALLY hate him!

If I gonna be a bit negative it felt rather short and the ending rather abrupt. Also sounds like they are setting up for a sequel and that would be fun. Fun to play, but maybe not at full price. Good graphics and fantastic music I might also add and the dialogue has its moments. At least try it once. That is the other problem and that it doesn't seem to be any replay value. They don't even have different difficulty settings, although I wouldn't want to try Lord Magmalith on any higher setting.
